Abstract
This paper describes a foliage model consisting of a series of tubes lined with reflective aluminium foil in which artificial leaves can be inserted at different orientations and spacings. The effect of leaf angle and leaf concentration on light penetration is reported.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
